PagesSection.Controls Property

Gets a collection of TagPrefixInfo objects.

Namespace:  System.Web.Configuration
Assembly:  System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
[ConfigurationPropertyAttribute("controls")]
public TagPrefixCollection Controls { get; }

The TagPrefixInfo objects correspond to the @ Register directive on an ASP.NET page. The @ Register directive allows you to specify the tag prefix for a user control.

The following code example shows how to use the Controls property.

// Get all current Controls in the collection. 
for (int i = 0; i < pagesSection.Controls.Count; i++)
{
  Console.WriteLine("Control {0}:", i);
  Console.WriteLine("  TagPrefix = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].TagPrefix);
  Console.WriteLine("  TagName = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].TagName);
  Console.WriteLine("  Source = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].Source);
  Console.WriteLine("  Namespace = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].Namespace);
  Console.WriteLine("  Assembly = '{0}' ",
      pagesSection.Controls[i].Assembly);
}

// Create a new TagPrefixInfo object.
System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo tagPrefixInfo =
    new System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo("MyCtrl", "MyNameSpace", "MyAssembly", "MyControl", "MyControl.ascx");

// Execute the Add Method.
pagesSection.Controls.Add(tagPrefixInfo);

// Add a TagPrefixInfo object using a constructor.
pagesSection.Controls.Add(
    new System.Web.Configuration.TagPrefixInfo(
    "MyCtrl", "MyNameSpace", "MyAssembly", "MyControl",
    "MyControl.ascx"));
